I have the same error :/

[gise88]

me too

[Novanormandy]

same here... it worked 2 days ago, did youtube change something?

[Oliyy]

From what I heard youtube changed something that broke how youtube-dl works and my friend said they usually get a fix pretty fast, but who knows how long it will be.

[ThomasChr]

@Oliy1492 In fact: It's already resolved. Khang-NT has provided a fix for the problem and as soon as this fix has been added to youtube-dl it'll work just fine.
If you feel up to it you can use the fix on your own version to make it work again.

[Oliyy]

Thanks so much you are my hero

[ThomasChr]

I think @Khang-NT is the hero here :-)
